Showtime’s spy thriller “Homeland” ran for eight seasons. The Claire Danes-led show has earned near-universal praise throughout its run—particularly for its first two years (Best Drama Golden Globe for both). “Homeland” takes its audience into the highly risky, complicated world of CIA agent Carrie Mathison, her private life, covert professional operations in the Middle East, and all the consequences and undertones of 21st-century counter-terrorism. The show received 40 Emmy nominations, winning eight.
